Non-Profit Board Governance

My Services:

• Board Workshops:  I equip your board members with the knowledge and skills necessary to fulfill their roles and responsibilities effectively. My interactive workshops cover topics such as governance best practices, fiduciary duties, board-staff relationships, new director recruitment and board fundraising.

I assist in updating and developing bylaws, conflict of interest policies, board committee charters, crisis management policies, and other essential governance documents that can be reviewed by your lawyer.

• Board Assessments: I can help in evaluating the performance of your board through comprehensive assessments. I can conduct surveys, interviews, and evaluations to identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement.

• Board Chair Advising: I can enhance the effectiveness and leadership of your Chair by assisting them in setting goals and objectives for themselves and the board. I provide techniques on how they can structure and run effective and productive board meetings.
